For those of you who play tech support for friends and family, there’s now a Hangouts app to make things easier -- powered by the same technology behind Chrome Remote Desktop.

Hangouts Remote Desktop lets you help others by controlling their computer remotely (with their permission, of course). And because you’re both in a Hangout, you can talk with and see each other during the session.

To get started, just start a Hangout and click View More Apps > Add Apps > Hangouts Remote Desktop.

#FirefoxOS has really well progressed since the last year. Even if this project will not make it in the US and in the West Europe, it'll be a very good start for innovation in the emerging markets, but also and mainly I think about all the innovating projects that we can now launch in the third world and developing countries without having a big kitty at the beginning.

I truly hope this project will make it in the next few months and years, in Africa, Asia or Middle East, because I strongly believe in the power of openness, HTML 5, Web API, accessibility and so on.

I'll not use it personally, but I really hope to find time within the few months to develop an idea based on this ecosystem.

Thanks Mozilla for this initiative, the same you have done a few years ago on the web. ﻿
